APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS
Preparation
Protect all people, property, and plants in case splash and wind drift could occur. Do not apply to any surface that is dirty, frozen, or heavily saturated or flood-
ed with water. Surface must be clean and free of all debris, dry, and absorbent. Mist water in a small area to test the surface for absorbency. Any surface to be
treated should uniformly wet out. If the surface to be treated does not wet out uniformly, it is then recommended to prepare the surface mechanically to remove
any remaining surface contaminants.
Application
New (Uncured) Concrete: It is not traditionally recommended to apply Armor S2000 to concrete earlier than 7 days. If this application is necessary, ensure the
removal of all soft cut saw debris prior to application. Apply after final troweling at a rate of 300-400 sq. ft. per gallon using an commercial grade pump sprayer
with a 0.3-0.5 gal./min. cone tip, lint free mop, or soft bristle push broom. Ensure floor saturation, removing any puddle areas with a soft bristle push broom or
mop. Apply more Armor S2000 to areas that appear to be more porous and are absorbing the material more. If excess Armor S2000 is allowed to dry on the
concrete surface, a white residue may form and can only be removed by mechanical means such as sanding or grinding process.
Existing Concrete: Apply at a rate of 200-300 sq. ft. per gallon using an commercial grade pump sprayer with a 0.3-0.5 gal./min. cone tip. Ensure floor satura-
tion, removing any puddle areas with a soft bristle push broom. Apply more Armor S2000 to areas that appear to be more porous and are absorbing the material
more. Rework any excess material with a soft bristle broom. If excess Armor S2000 is allowed to dry on the concrete surface, a white residue may form
and can only be removed by mechanical means such as sanding or grinding process.
Polished Concrete: After completing the 400 grit stage of polishing, apply a uniform coat of Armor S2000 at a rate of 200-300 sq. ft. per gallon using an com-
mercial grade pump sprayer with a 0.3-0.5 gal./min. cone tip, lint free mop, or soft bristle push broom, ensuring floor saturation. Do not allow to puddle. If
excess Armor S2000 is allowed to dry on the concrete surface, a white residue may form and can only be removed by mechanical means such as sand-
ing or grinding process. Follow through with additional polishing steps until desired appearance is achieved. Additional applications of Armor S2000 can be
added at any stage before the final polishing phase is done if necessary at a rate of 200-300 sq. ft. per gallon. Remove any excess residue with polishing dia-
monds or polishing pads. Flushing with water is not necessary. Note: For softer concrete an initial application of Armor S2000 can be applied after the 80 grit
stage prior to the standard polishing steps to achieve a harder surface.
Clean-Up
Use warm water and soap. Dispose of containers in accordance with local and federal regulations.
Product Removal
Once the Calcium Silicate Structure (CSH) has hardened within the pores it can not be removed unless the concrete itself is removed.
 Product is designed for fully cured concrete. Concrete must be a minimum of 28 days old before applying product.
 Do not apply over floor adhesives, paints, coatings, sealers. This product is designed for unsealed surfaces.
 Coverage rates depend upon many conditions including application method, surface porosity, and applicator.
 Sealer is not resistant to brake fluid, gasoline, and many other similar products.
 Sealer will not stop surface stains as the surface of the substrate is fully exposed.
 Do not dilute or thin sealer with any products.
 Do not over apply. Over application can result in the formation of CSH crystals on the surface which can only be removed through mechanical grinding.
 Store product in an area where the temperature is between 55-80 degrees F, and not in direct sunlight.
 Proper personal protective equipment should be worn when applying this product. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet prior to application.
 Properly protect and cover any areas not intended or suggested to be sealed during application.
 Foundation Armor offers no guarantee, warranty or other claims to the success or results of a job or project.
 In all cases, refer to the Safety Data Sheet prior to application for complete health and safety information. Do not swallow, avoid direct contact with skin, avoid inhalation,
keep out of reach of children and pets.
 The applicator is responsible for suitability of application, and the results of the application. We suggest applying to a test area first to verify compatibility, absorption, cover-
age rate, and project suitability.
 Product is not returnable once opened or used so please consider purchasing a 16 ounce sample to test product before purchasing larger quantities.
